Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Sortieren von Flüssigkeitsbehältern in der Form von leeren Getränkeverpackungen und insbesondere zum Steuern der Förderrichtung von solchen Behältern, zum Beispiel Dosen oder Flaschen mit beliebigem Querschnitt, wobei die Förderrichtung entweder entlang eines Förderpfades durch einen Abschnitt der Vorrichtung oder seitwärts weg von dem Förderpfad ist, wo die Behälter in einer horizontalen Position gestützt werden.The The present invention relates to a device for sorting Liquid containers in the Shape of empty beverage containers and in particular for controlling the conveying direction of such containers, for Example cans or bottles of any cross section, the Delivery direction either along a conveyor path through a portion of the device or sideways away from the conveying path is where the containers are be supported in a horizontal position.
Eine Vielzahl von Typen von Sortiervorrichtungen zum Bewegen von Flüssigkeitsbehältern entweder entlang eines geraden Pfades oder seitwärts weg von solch einem Förderpfad sind bereits bekannt. Insbesondere wenn die Flüssigkeitsbehälter in einer horizontalen Position befördert werden, ist es keine vollkommen einfache Aufgabe, die Flüssigkeitsbehälter seitwärts weg von dem Förderpfad zu bewegen. Dies gilt insbesondere in denjenigen Fällen, in denen auch die Notwendigkeit besteht, den Flüssigkeitsbehälter seitwärts weg von und auf einem Niveau oberhalb des Förderpfads auf eine sichere Art und Weise zu bewegen.A Variety of types of sorters for moving liquid containers either along a straight path or sideways away from such a conveying path are already known. In particular, when the liquid container in one horizontal position It is not a completely easy task, the liquid container sideways away from the conveyor path to move. This is especially true in those cases in which also the need exists, the liquid container sideways away from and at a level above the transport path to a safe one Way to move.
Folglich ist es eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einige der mit dem Stand der Technik verbundenen Probleme zu lösen und gemäß der Erfindung wird vorgeschlagen, dass die Vorrichtung eine Trommel aufweisen sollte, welche oberhalb des Förderpfades drehbar angeordnet ist und deren Rotationsachse in der Richtung des Förderpfades verläuft, wobei die Trommel wenigstens eine an den Behälter angepasste Kammer, welche in der Richtung der Rotationsachse durchläuft und ihre Öffnung am Umfang der Trommel aufweist, eine Behälterführungsplatte, welche sich von dem Förderpfad entlang eines Abschnitts des Umfangs der Trommel seitlich und nach oben erstreckt, und einen Behälterauswurfmechanismus aufweist, welcher in Verbindung mit der Kammer angeordnet ist, wobei der Mechanismus so ausgebildet ist, dass er im mechanischen Betrieb die Kammer leert, wenn sich, als eine Folge der Rotation der Trommel, die Kammeröffnung über einen oberen Rand der Behälterführungsplatte bewegt hat und somit einen in der Kammer liegenden Behälter mit Kraft aus der Kammer schiebt, Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform besteht der Mechanismus aus einem in der Trommel radial beweglichen Schlitten, wobei der Schlitten mit seinem radial als äußerstes gelegenen Abschnitt die Rückwand der Kammer bildet, und einer stationären Führungsscheibe an den Enden der Trommel, wobei der Schlitten ein Führungsrad oder eine Rolle aufweist, welche mit dem Umfang der Führungsscheibe zur mechanischen Kontrolle der Bewe gung des Schlittens, wenn die Trommel rotiert, in Wirkverbindung steht.consequently It is an object of the present invention to provide some of the Prior art problems solved and according to the invention it is proposed that the device should have a drum which above the conveyor path is rotatably disposed and its axis of rotation in the direction the conveyor path runs, where the drum at least one adapted to the container chamber, which in the direction of the axis of rotation passes through and their opening on Has periphery of the drum, a container guide plate, which is different from the promotion path along a portion of the circumference of the drum laterally and upwardly extends, and a container ejection mechanism which is arranged in connection with the chamber, wherein the mechanism is designed to be in mechanical operation the chamber empties when, as a consequence of the rotation of the drum, the chamber opening over a upper edge of the container guide plate has moved and thus a lying in the chamber container Pushing force out of the chamber, According to another embodiment the mechanism consists of a radially movable in the drum Slide, the slide with its radially as the utmost located section of the back wall the chamber forms, and a stationary guide disc at the ends the drum, wherein the carriage has a guide wheel or a roller, which with the scope of the guide disc for mechanically controlling the movement of the carriage when the Drum rotates, is in operative connection.
Gemäß einer besonderen Ausführungsform der Vorrichtung ist die Rotationsachse der Trommel relativ zu dem Förderpfad zur Seite versetzt.According to one particular embodiment of the Device is the axis of rotation of the drum relative to the conveying path put aside.
Die Führungsscheibe weist in einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform eine ovale oder elliptische Form auf, wobei sich ihr Mittelpunkt in einem Abstand oberhalb der Achse der Trommel befindet.The guide disc In an advantageous embodiment, an oval or elliptical shape with its center at a distance above the axis of the drum is located.
Die Erfindung wird nun im Detail unter Bezugnahme auf die beigefügten Zeichnungen beschrieben, welche eine beispielhafte Ausführungsform zeigen, welche die Erfindung nicht einschränkt.The The invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings which show an exemplary embodiment which the Invention does not limit.
